Ortgies Jamming Question

[OLD FORD GUY]

I have a 7.65 Ortgies pistol that occasionally jams. It always happens when the last round in the magazine is being fed into the chamber. It catches the ejected casing that has just been fired and causes the empty casing to stand upright (I think this is called stovepipe) and jam the slide. Any thoughts on what is causing this?

sounds like a magazine issue.

I got a new magazine from Triple K Mfg so figured it should be OK but will have to look into that mag further. Will get another new one and see if that works.
Thanks for the response.
